Although Zoega lists <kné> as m(asculine), I think this must be a misprint, because Cleasby/Vigfusson lists it as n(euter), and Gordon (An Introduction to Old Norse) uses it as a paradigm for a stong declension a-stem neuter noun, giving <kné> as the accusative plural form.

> And fell on (her) knees (grammatically could be sg or

> and all her dominion (sg vald, Z2) and land.
